LOVESICK
Johnny Polygon Lyrics

I'm right, you're wrong, I suppose I'll write a song
Starting a conflict, acknowledging it and trying to convey opinions through this song.

We'll go at it all night long, you'll tell me it's my fault
Fighting all night and expecting to be blamed for it.

I started it, I know it, door's open too late to close it
Acknowledging responsibility for starting the fight and realizing it's too late to back down.

I'll yell, you'll scream, we'll fall asleep and dream
The fight will escalate and end up with them exhausting themselves and falling asleep.

We'll wake up, then make up, then later on we'll break up
The pattern of fighting, making up and then breaking up will continue.

You'll tell me that your day sucked, because of my behavior
Expecting to be blamed for the things that went wrong in their partner's day.

Plus our neighbors, they nosey but fuck them, they don't know me
Disregarding what the neighbors think of their relationship because they don't know the truth about it.

Plus, my niggas, my niggas, all say that you're the homie
The friends think she's cool and accept her as part of the group.

Plus, you know me, I'm stubborn, all that fucking on the floor gave me rug burn
Using humor to convey that they are hard-headed and playful ways that caused physical harm.

I would love nothing more than to love her like no other (oh brother)
Wishing to love her in a special way.

He loves her, I love her too
Realizing that they both love her, but it's not enough.

Too little, too late, ain't nothing new
Seeing that it's too late to change things and being resigned to it.

What would we do but shatter the glass
Acknowledging that breaking up will only bring pain.

Hand me a broom cause using our hands will leave us bleeding
Choosing to use a broom instead of hands to avoid getting hurt.

I believe our lives are fleeting, completing a circle of distrust
Thinking that their lives are temporary and that they might go through the same cycle of hurt again.

I miss us, and it's embarrasing, what would my parent's think?
Feeling embarrassed and sad about their relationship and wondering what their parents would think of it.

They fuckin' loved your ass, look in the mirror and fuckin' laugh
The parents liked her and now it seems funny to think about it.

If you would leave, where would you go my beautiful mess, my Marilyn Monroe
Questioning where she would go if she left and appreciating her beauty in spite of the turmoil.

Love sick, masochists if this is all we are
Feeling love-sick and acknowledging that they might be masochistic to stay in the relationship.

Super Nintendo
Referencing a video game console as a escape from reality.

It's okay, it's alright, we gon' get fucked up tonight
Accepting that their relationship is far from perfect and choosing to get drunk to deal with it.

I'm the best me there ever was, fuck love, we never was
Feeling like being yourself is more important than staying in a bad relationship.

Best me I ever been, invincible, that a boy
Being proud of who you are and feeling like you are unstoppable.

It's the principle not the details
Believing that it's more important to stick to your principles than to focus on the details of the argument.

One thing I learned about females is we always reserve the right to change their minds about what they like
Acknowledging that women have the right to change their minds and what they like.

And what they don't? Well, there ya go
Accepting that women are entitled to change their opinions and preferences.

To another one lost and many more
Knowing that they will lose more relationships in the future.

The pain is inevitable and never on your schedule
Realizing that heartbreak is unpredictable and comes without warning.

The less you know the better you are
Believing that ignorance is bliss when it comes to relationships.

Proof that life is so bizarre, I guess I seen a lot
Realizing how strange and unpredictable life can be.

Of them corona bottles and tequila shots
Referencing alcohol as a way of coping with love and heartbreak.

That murder murder hurt me on purpose, I deserve it
Feeling like heartbreak is a painful but necessary lesson.

Me and my problems, I ain't perfect
Acknowledging that they have their own problems and they are not perfect.

Look at this shit I been forced to work with
Reflecting on the problems in their relationship and feeling like they are being forced to deal with them.

Made it beautiful, made it worth it I guess
Finding beauty in the chaos and problems of their relationship.

Seems obscene but I digress, I seen these things in my dreams and nightmares
Acknowledging that what's happening feels surreal, but they have seen it before in their dreams and nightmares.

The scariest thing is I might care still
Feeling scared that they might still care about their ex-partner.

My ferris wheel's full of alcohol and pills and that marijuana
Using alcohol, drugs and marijuana as ways to cope with the pain of heartbreak.

I don't care, you're gone, however
Saying that they don't care about their ex-partner anymore, but still feeling the pain of their absence.

I'll never take back the fact that I met her, Ever!
Appreciating the time they had together even if it ended badly.

Man I just wanna do better, but she's the fuckin' devil and I'll love that bitch forever, we was-
Feeling like they could do better in their next relationship, but realizing that their ex-partner had a hold on them.

Some would it's suicidal
Suggesting that loving someone who is not good for you is a suicidal tendency.

To kill yourself to
Using extreme examples and analogies of ending oneself to highlight how unhealthy the relationship is.

Make someone smile
Saying that they would do anything to make their partner happy, even if it means sacrificing their own happiness.

I play too much Super Nintendo
Using video games as an escape mechanism from reality.

Staring at TV
Spending too much time watching television and avoiding real life problems.

Looking through windows so long
Feeling like they have been an outsider looking in on their own life for too long.

Ooh, baby, it hurts so good (so long)
Feeling pain but describing it as good due to feeling a sense of familiarity.

Super Nintendo (so long)
Using video games as a symbol of their inability to face their problems head-on.

Lonely that you're- lonely that you are (that you are)
Feeling lonely even in the presence of their partner.
